Caboose Used in Ringling Brothers Move C&E Line Kingsbury Street Chicago November 1996
I did my best to clean up these slides which are new scans using a better Canon 9000F Mark II flatbed scanner than the previous Wolverine slide scanner. Taken at twilight. The slides had deteriorated with time.
They show things gone now including Ringling Brothers circus trains and trains on the former Milwaukee Road Chicago & Evanston Line, by this time operated by the Soo Line as well as in one shot the Montgomery Ward headquarters building. Montgomery Ward went out of business in the early 2000s.
Ringling Brothers was doing a show at the United Center. In later years the circus trains would park on the former Milwaukee Road Galewood Yard tracks.
